Difference between Instruction, Transaction and Messages

In Payment industry, sometimes you get confused when we should call a payment an 'Instruction' , a Transaction' or a 'Message'. Seems like they are all same in payment processing scenarios. But in MT and MX, there is a big difference among these three, I , T , M .

M - a message in MT/MX world can have multiple payment instructions by a client and a payment instruction can have multiple transactions ordered.

I - regarding instruction, every message would have at least one payment instruction and the instruction would have at least a transaction.

T - transaction is the actual granular unit that says what money has to be moved from debtor to creditor in a Credit transfer transaction.
